A/N: I don't own any wrestlers. Please review!
Esha Napoleon & Kayla Smiley- Thanks for the reviews.
D POV
We walked down to the restaurant and it was so good to be back with Al. We used to come here after football (soccer) games and just hang out. The owner was so glad to see us as soon as we walked in. He just hugged Al and they talked for a minute. The gauds that were with Al sat down because they knew the place really well and wasn't too worry about other people getting to her.
The pizzas came and we were all eating. Everyone was enjoying the food and Al was happy. I was feeding Maria little pieces and realized that I owed Al a whole lot for introducing me to her. I was happy, but now I just had to get Al and Phil together. I knew they were perfect for each other and I knew that they wouldn't ever act on it themselves. Maria had told me about the ring Phil had bought her and I was just glad they were talking again.
We finally left to go back to the palace. I knew that Al was excited to ride 4 wheelers and I wanted to ride with her. I knew that Mark would probably ride with us.
Al POV
We got back and changed; I was excited. Mark, Sara, Phil, D, Maria, Matt, Jeff, John, and I were all going to ride 4 wheelers. I knew that Mark and Sara would double, Maria and D would double, and I wasn't sure about everyone else.
I walked out in jeans and a t-shirt; it was nice to be able to walk around and not be dressed up. I threw my hair up in a messy ponytail as I met everyone in the hall way. I just smiled because we were all in jeans and t-shirt; no one had on make up or anything that looked like we cared.
We walked to the building where the 4-wheelers were and got helmets. We also go 4-wheelers and took off in the open fields around the palace. I felt free when I was riding out here, until I caught a glimpse of the guards riding in jeeps a few hundred feet away.
We rode for a long time and were having so much fun. I took them down trails and through the fields. We were riding when the 4-wheeler Phil had ran out of gas; so I let him double with me. I kind of like the feeling of his arms wrapped around my waist. We rode for a long time before deciding to go back. I didn't want to go back, but it was getting dark so we needed to go back.
"I'm hungry." Maria said and I just looked at them.
"Go ahead and eat; I will be there in a minute. I need to see my father." I told them.
I was walking away when D pulled me aside and I looked at him.
"Don't start this again." He said and I looked at him.
"I am eating; I promise." I told him and he looked at me. He pulled me into a hug and smiled at me.
"It's going to be ok; you will have fun tomorrow night." He said and I kissed his cheek.
"Thanks, D." I said and he walked away.
I walked to my father's study and went in to find my dad and my mom watching TV.
"Hey." I told them and they both hugged me.
I talked to them for a few minutes about tomorrow night and I was just glad that it was almost over and I had the rest of the week to do nothing. I left a little later to go practice with Phil; I was so glad I didn't actually live in the palace anymore.
I changed into sweat and a tank top, grabbed a pair of heels, and went to find everyone. They were all hanging out in the theater.
"Hey." Jeff said and I sat on his lap. We were all talking and I needed to practice.
"You ready?" Phil asked and I nodded.
Everyone was going to come with me; since Maria had to be introduced as well. We walked to the main staircase and they were all shocked at how big it was. I was trying not to laugh and D was laughing at Maria's reaction.
We turned on a radio and I slipped on my heels; Maria got a pair and put them on as well.
"Um, this is not what I expected." Maria said and I was laughing.
"You will be fine." I told her and she just nodded.
"Come on, Al, we can show her how it goes." D said and we walked upstairs.
I took D's arm and we glided down the stairs.
"It's easy." I told Maria.
"Falling is easy too." She said and we were laughing at her.
Phil POV
I watched Maria and D practice walking down the stairs and then Al pulled me up there.
"Jeff, watch." She told me and I was laughing.
We walked up and down the stairs a few times so that she could get comfortable with the shoes she was going to wear. We were all at the bottom and she was laughing about D trying to dance when he pulled her up with him and they were dancing. We were all laughing at them, until D and Maria were going somewhere. Matt, Jeff, and Kelly were going to watch a movie and I was still sitting with Al on the stairs.
"You going to be ok tomorrow night?" I asked her and she nodded.
"Yeah, I will be better when it gets over with." She said and I smiled at her.
"You going to save me a dance?" I asked her and she looked at me a little confused.
"Yeah, if you want one." She said and I nodded.
"Come on, let's go." She said.
"Where?" I asked her.
"Somewhere." She said and I nodded.
She changed shoes and we went up four flights of stairs. I didn't even know that the palace was that big. We walked up to the top and down a long hall; she opened the door and we walked into a room that looked as if it hadn't been touched in years.
"Where are we?" I asked her.
"You would call it the attic." She said and I nodded.
"The stars are pretty up here." She said and pointed up. The room had a skylight and you could see the stars perfectly.
"Lay down." She said and I realized there was an old bed right where the skylight was and she was laying on it.
I laid down next to her and she snuggled up to me. We were watching the stars and the only noise was our breathing.
"I come here to think." She said and I just smiled. She was letting me in again and I was glad that everything was finally getting back to normal.
"It's peaceful." I told her and she smiled.
We were laying there and I was enjoying just being near her. I realized it was a little colder up here than it was in other parts of the palace; I pulled her over to me and she laid her head on my chest.
"You are comfy to lay on." She said.
"Don't worry; I will always be your pillow." I told her and she sighed.
"What?" I asked her.
"It's soothing to hear your heart." She said and I ran my hand through her hair.
"How long is your dad going to let you wrestle until you have to come back?" I asked her.
"Two years." She said and I could hear slight sadness in her voice.
"Is there any way you can stay?" I asked her.
"If I find love; it's hopeless." She said and I laughed.
"Why is it hopeless?" I asked her.
"No guy wants my problems." She said and I knew why she said that.
"I am sure that some guy does." I told her and she looked at me.
"Who?" she asked me and poked me in the ribs; I jumped. She was giggling and started to tickle me.
"Stop." I said and she just kept going.
"Fine, you will be sorry." I said and I pinned her to the bed. I was tickling her and she was squirming in the worst way. I could feel her breast rubbing against my chest, she was grinding her hips in a bad way, and she was making it hard for me not to want her.
"Please stop." She was begging me.
I finally stopped and looked at her as she tried to catch her breath. She looked perfect and she had no idea what she was doing to me. I couldn't take it anymore; I had to kiss her.
Al POV
I was underneath Phil and we were looking at each other. I was catching my breath after he was tickling me and his hazel eyes were staring into my eyes. I licked my lips, unconsciously, and I wanted to kiss him.
He slowly lowered his lips until they brushed against mine. I wrapped my arms around him to bring him closer as he ran his hand up and was tracing my ribs. I couldn't get enough of Phil; he was intoxicating to me. We were fighting for dominance in the kiss as he moved over and flipped us over. I was straddling Phil and he had his hands on my hips. I didn't care to be like this because I wasn't close enough to him. I broke the kiss and just looked at him; he was trying to catch his breath.
"Sorry, Al, I didn't mean to." He said and I sighed. I didn't want to hear that come from him; I wanted him to want to kiss me.
I just got up and started to walk away. Phil ran and caught me before I made it out of the room and pulled me to him. I was struggling against him. I didn't want to deal with being rejected right now.
"Stop." He said.
"Please, let me go, I don't know why I thought you actually want to kiss me." I whispered.
Phil POV
She thought I didn't want to kiss her. I was a little hurt by what she said and I felt bad for what I had said. I didn't want to give her the wrong impression, but I had. I turned her to face me and saw tears in her eyes; I felt like an ass.
"Let me go." She said and I pushed her up against the wall and pulled her chin up so that she would look at me. I leaned in closer to her and she just looked at me.
"I do want to kiss you." I whispered and brushed my lips across hers.
"I want to kiss you every day." I whispered and placed another small kiss on her lips.
"I want to kiss you, too." She whispered and I was happy.
I brought my lips to hers as her arms wrapped around my neck and pulled me as close as she could. I had my hands on her hips and I was doing everything I could not to run my hands on her perfect body.
We finally pulled apart and just looked at each other.
"Al, will you be my girlfriend?" I whispered to her and she just nodded.
"Good. I wasn't going to take no." I said and kissed her again.
"Come on." She said and took my hand. We went back to her room and were lying on the bed watching TV. She was playing with Em and I remembered I wanted to give her the ring.
"Um, Al?" I asked her and she looked at me.
"I got you something." I told her and she gave me a confused look.
"Close your eyes." I told her and she closed her eyes.
"I got you this because you are my best friend, not because you are a princess." I told her and put the small box in her hand. She opened her eyes and looked at it.
"You got me a box." She said and I was laughing.
"Very funny, open it." I told her and she did. She smiled at the sight of the ring and I hoped that she liked it.
"You like it?" I asked her and she smiled at me.
"I love it." She said and kissed me.
She took it out and slipped in on her ring finger on her right hand.
"Thank you." she said and pulled me into a kiss. I never realized I would like kissing someone so much.
